Re: spoilers

Agreed! (I honestly don't get all the hot topic/Emo jokes, though. Like, he is dressed in a black cloak and tunic, like all dark-side force users before him, it's not exactly a surprise? And his hair is naturally dark/black so... huh.)

I think they did really well with a lot of the humour/aggressively short tempered and competence/doesn't have full control over things contrasts.
(I loved the scene of the confrontation with Poe at the beginning, the way he just casually crouched down to chat with him while that blaster shot kept hanging in the air - he had enough control to keep the shot in the air the whole time. And then, after he killed Han, he managed to do nothing to stop Chewie's shot even though he could have been capable to do it. I'm not sure if that was intentional, but it contrasted really well, imo.)

And I think one thing that Driver did really, really well was the way that, while his mask was on, his body language and speech was pretty self-assured most of the time but as soon as the helmet came of, it seemed like he didn't really know what to do/what he was doing with his facial expressions. And that was definitely intentional on Driver's part, I'm sure of it.

I think people like to make fun of Kylo more because he's idolizes Vader and isn't a real Sith yet, so I guess people think of it as cosplay or something, lol. He's playing at it, he wants it so badly, but in the end he hasn't reached those 'depths' yet. (That, and without the helmet he does look like 'some guy', but that's the entire point.)

IA! I loved how chill he was during that scene with Poe, and I loved his attitude during the Rey interrogation too. He is definitely Han and Leia's son, even if he would rather not think about that.

As for Chewie's shot, given his abilities earlier in the film I'm convinced he could've stopped it, but was too distracted/distraught from what he had done. Which makes him even more interesting!

Absolutely! There's no way that wasn't an intentional acting choice. There's a lot of good acting with body language in this film (Finn in his Stormtropper gear in that first scene, for instance), and it seemed so apparent that Kylo is 100% more confident with the mask on. He isn't comfortable with his 'true' self.
